Artem Mukhin

Artem is an emerging writer and multidisciplinary artist exploring memory, emotional inheritance, and the quiet tension between what is said and what is felt.

For many years, their path was shaped by the pursuit of security and recognition—through formal education, professional success, and the hope of building a life elsewhere. Raised in a rigid environment where sensitivity was rarely encouraged, they quietly set aside their creative instinct in favor of what seemed necessary.

Writing returned not as a hobby, but as an act of catharsis and reawakening. Through slow and attentive storytelling, they now seek to recover the textures of inner life: the language of suppressed feeling, intimate memory, and everyday beauty. Their current project draws inspiration from sensory detail, ritual, and the unspoken. It is about sincere connection and discovering what resonates beyond the personal.

They are particularly inspired by filmmakers such as Pedro Almodóvar, Ingmar Bergman, and Andrei Tarkovsky; the prose of Gabriel García Márquez, Ray Bradbury, and Albert Camus; and the poetry of Boris Pasternak. Their background shapes an atmospheric and emotionally precise style.

Artem is an artist-in-residence at Can Serrat in September 2025.
